that's not true.
a friend of mine was 22, she tried to buy individual health insurance with a blank medical history and discovered that no insurer offered polices for her gender and age group in her geographic region (VA)
no one would sell her individual insurance.
as a 26 year old male with a similarly blank medical history in a different geographic region (MD), I recently had exactly the same thing happen. no one would quote me a policy because no one wanted to sell me a policy.
- jakelear 14y agoDisclosure: I live with a benefits broker. I'm interested in your friend's story. At 23, male, in VA I had absolutely no trouble buying an individual policy. I have some health issues, but nothing major, but I was able to secure a decent policy for just over 100$/month. MD should be even easier (if more expensive), considering there is no medical underwriting in MD.
